Carp Connection at Norfolk Angling Conservation
Association (NACA) Open Day 2008
Carp Connection were invited
to attend the annual Norfolk Angling Conservation
Association Open Day at Bawburgh Lakes, Norwich on
Sunday 1st June 2008...
I'd
planned a two night session down Horseshoe for
Sunday 4th march until Tuesday 6th march, on looking
at the Met-Check website the weather seemed bang
on....
With the on set of the colder months I moved back to my local
syndicate water. It’s a shallow gravel pit of around
eight acres with a reputation as a reliable winter
water...
I've always wanted to catch a 30lb carp
from Norfolk since I can remember. I was sitting at
home thinking of what water would give me the best
chance, there was only one that sprung to my
mind, Swangey...
The arrival of spring meant it was time to renew
the love hate relationship with Colney Lake on the
Bawburgh complex just outside Norwich. The lake is
undoubtedly the hardest I’ve ever fished...
I
have always been told through my life that I seen to
carry a fair amount of luck. I'm not sure
this is true however the story below is one which
may add fuel to such comments...
I’d known about the lake for a while, but the quest started
earlier this year when I purchased a spring ticket
for Ringland near Norwich. It was initially just
somewhere to go until the season started in June...
